Quick answers to the most common questions about TheFlightWall.
TheFlightWall connects to your WiFi and displays live aircraft data from commercial aircraft, private jets, general aviation, helicopters, and more.
Area Tracking (Local sky): shows all aircraft in the area you choose; over your home, office or anywhere in the world you would like. Set a radius over your location by selecting the location arrow in the top left of your area tracking map, draw a precise polygon (e.g. focusing on a single runway), or combine both, up to 1,000 km² (386 mi²) in total.
Flight Tracking: follows a specific aircraft by flight number, callsign or tail number. Tracked flights show while they are active with as much or as little information as you choose in the app.
Once connected, FlightWall updates automatically in real time as long as it is connected to WIFI.

FlightWall only works on 2.4 GHz WiFi. If you only have 5 GHz, contact your network provider and ask them to split off a 2.4 GHz connection (as this is available for most providers). A mobile hotspot also works great.
Yes. Download TheFlightWall App and scan the QR code shown during setup (accessible by unplugging and replugging the device), or connect manually using the device ID and password. All connected users can view and control it from any network. One person can also control multiple FlightWall devices using that same setup method.
No. TheFlightWall’s core features are included in the product price, with no subscription. FlightWall Plus is an optional subscription, $10/month or $100/year, that adds extra features, starting with Plus Sync, which puts a pilot or crew member’s schedule on the wall. Plus works with every FlightWall, no matter when it was purchased, and you can access it through the Plus tab in TheFlightWall App. Learn more at plus.theflightwall.com.
